They “carry” the essential oil onto the skin hence the name carrier oils. They are fixed oils which means they are not volatile and are extracted from vegetable origin such as nuts or seeds.

"Cold Pressed" is method of mechanical extraction where heat is reduced and minimized, this helps the oil maintain its original state, constituents, and depth
